OK, so the hiccup has been fixed and the tar file and signature is up
now and my release script will fail rather than continue when there's a
problem like this in the future.  Thanks for pointing this out!

I might be missing something but while I do see things about how to have
(and show "verified") signed commits, I don't see that we can do that on
tags.  I can script the release process but I think we would move from
the release tag being signed to the commit being signed.  Which isn't
awful I suppose, but is a change.

That might be quite unfortunate if we stop producing "static" tarballs with
known checksums as in build-systems like Buildroot tarballs are still preferable
or at least simpler way of dealing with new versions.

Or at least if creation of "static tarballs" won't be supported looking forward
it might be good to make people aware of that somehow :)

Also cannot we use "Releases" feature of GitLab?
See https://gitlab.denx.de/help/user/project/releases/index.
Not sure if in case of "releases" tarballs could be still regenerated at some
point but even in that case we may "attach" "manually" created "assets" which 
will
have a known checksums and those are for sure as static as it can be.

The problem is that unless this is unlike the github interface the
tarballs are deleted / recreated at times and so the checksums change.
In OpenEmbedded land this is worked around by using the githash for a
specific tag and fetching that way.  I don't know if Fedora/etc support
a similar mechanism.

There is no need for (static) tarballs, as you can always download
one dynamically from the gitlab interface.

Go to https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot , then clock on the
"Download" symbol, which looks something like this:

It's labeled "Download source code", and you can select for example
"tar.bz2" download format.

Is there a tar file?


[ANN] U-Boot v2020.07-rc3 released

2020-05-25 Thread Tom Rini
Hey all,

It's release day and I've tagged v2020.07-rc3.  We're moving along
nicely and should continue with prioritizing stabilization and obviously
correct updates / migrations at this time.

Once again, for a changelog, 
git log --merges v2020.07-rc2..v2020.07-rc3
and as always, I ask for more details in the PRs people send me so I can
put them in the merge commit.

I'm going to continue with the every-other-week RC schedule and release on
July 6th.  I'm currently planning to branch -next on June 8th but PRs
can be posted sooner and I'll get them queued up.  Thanks all!
